Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The fact that sensitization against fungi and Th17 cell induction are closely related to the severity of asthma suggests that immune systems recognizing fungi are involved in the pathogenesis of severe asthma. Our objectives were 1) to determine the roles of Dectin-2, a C-type lectin receptor functions as not only a pattern recognition receptor for fungi but also a receptor for some components of house dust mite (HDM) extract, in HDM-induced allergic airway inflammation and 2) to examine the roles of Sox5, a member of the SOX (SRY-related high-mobility-group (HMG)-box) family of transcription factors which is expressed in Th17 cells, in Th17 cell differentiation. We found 1) Dectin-2 expressed on CD11b+ DCs promotes HDM-induced Th2 and Th17 cell differentiation and allergic airway inflammation and 2) Sox5 along with c-Maf induces RORγt expression and subsequent Th17 cell differentiation as downstream targets of IL-6-Stat3 pathways.
